David Hockney and Claude Lorrain: The Sermon on the Mount / Xavier F. Salomon.

David Hockney CH RA (b. 1937) has always been closely associated with Pop Art and California, where he has lived for much of his life. This major study of his work redefines him as an important painter of the English countryside, presenting his recent landscapes for the first time. In an attempt to renew contemporary art, Hockney has returned to painting in the open air, observing with honesty and intensity the scenery of his childhood in East Yorkshire. These works convey the drama and splendour of nature and the pathos of our relationship with it, an age-old subject treated by Hockney with a modern and spirited eye, often informed by his interest in photography and digital media. Exhibition: Royal Academy of Arts, London, 21 January - 9 April 2012.
